aspeed: provide suitable kernel build defaults
oe-core has these defaults: KERNEL_IMAGETYPE: "zimage" KERNEL_CLASSES: "kernel-uimage" INITRAMFS_IMAGE: "" INITRAMFS_FSTYPES: "cpio.gz" Override those defaults with Aspeed specific defaults that are more appropriate to the current state of typical usage (FIT) of Aspeed chips: KERNEL_IMAGETYPE: "fitImage" KERNEL_CLASSES: "kernel-fitimage" INITRAMFS_IMAGE: "aspeed-image-initramfs" INITRAMFS_FSTYPES: "cpio.xz" By default use aspeed-image-initramfs in the FIT image. aspeed-image-initramfs is just an alias to core-image-minimal. The alias is required because vanilla core-image-minimal is not an initramfs image recipe...in oe, in general, the usage of the image recipe (initramfs or not) is baked into the recipe itself with a line like: IMAGE_FSTYPES = "${INITRAMFS_FSTYPES}" The same behavior *could* be obtained with a bbappend but that then prevents users from using the original image recipe as a real root filesystem image in their setups. Perhaps at a later time a replacement image with an Aspeed hardware evaluation kit theme would be a more suitable default.
